Brembo SSP 5.5 Brake Disc Kit Kawasaki ZX-10 R (2004-2015) 208973722

Engineered from the ground up for the Kawasaki ZX-10 R, the Brembo SSP 5.5 brake disc kit (part number 208973722) brings the same floating SuperSport technology trusted in World Superbike competition to both road and track use across the 2004-2015 model range. Every component reflects Brembo's uncompromising approach to materials and manufacturing — a kit built to deliver consistent, fade-resistant stopping power lap after lap.

Key Features

• Floating SuperSport disc construction absorbs thermal expansion under hard braking, maintaining constant contact pressure and eliminating distortion that fixed discs suffer at high temperatures
• Precision-machined stainless steel friction rings meet Brembo's exacting surface-finish tolerances, ensuring immediate bite and progressive feel from cold
• Exact-fit engineering for the Kawasaki ZX-10 R (2004-2015): correct bolt pattern, inner diameter and disc thickness matched to OEM caliper geometry
• Optimised 5.5 mm disc thickness balances rigidity with low unsprung mass, contributing to sharper front-end response under braking
• Fully compatible with Brembo brake pads — the pairing is validated to work in harmony and maximise pad and disc service life
• Suited to demanding track sessions and aggressive road riding where thermal load and braking consistency are equally critical

Build Quality and Materials

Brembo's SuperSport range is defined by the quality of its raw material selection and the precision of its manufacturing process. The friction rings are produced from a high-carbon stainless steel alloy chosen for its resistance to heat-induced warping, corrosion and surface crazing — failure modes that compromise cheaper discs under sustained braking. The floating button arrangement — the hallmark of the SSP design — allows the outer ring to move independently of the aluminium carrier, dissipating heat more effectively and eliminating the thermal stress that causes judder. The result is a brake disc that performs as well on the hundredth corner as it does on the first.

Performance on Road and Track

The 320 mm disc diameter is calibrated to the braking demands of the ZX-10 R's weight and power output. The 34 mm friction ring width maximises the swept area available to the caliper pistons, while the five-hole bolt pattern centred on a 100 mm pitch circle diameter ensures the disc seats squarely without run-out. Whether you are braking hard for turn one at a track day or scrubbing speed for a tight road junction, this kit responds with a linearity and progressiveness that cheaper aftermarket discs routinely fail to replicate.

Fitment and Compatibility

This kit is designed and validated exclusively for the Kawasaki ZX-10 R covering model years 2004 through 2015. Always verify your specific model year and confirm caliper type before fitting. For best results and validated pad-to-disc compatibility, pair with genuine Brembo brake pads.
